If it is fresh and just picked:

1. Usually, fresh lotus seeds are given. When peeling, all the sides with honeycomb protrusions on the shower head should be taken off, and then you can see the lotus seeds inside, but the lotus seeds are still covered with a white fibrous film.

2. After taking out the lotus seeds inside, remove the white fibrous film on its surface by hand, and then remove the green shell on its outer layer. At this time, the white and fat lotus seeds are completely presented to people, and you can just put them in your mouth and chew them up for eating.

The peeling method of dried lotus seeds

1. The peeling method of fresh lotus seeds is relatively simple. The peeling method of dried lotus seeds is different from that of fresh lotus seeds.

2. It's too hot after taking it out. Put it in plant ash, let its surface be evenly covered with a layer of plant ash, and then pile it up for two hours. When it is stewed and dried, chop off its two ends with a knife. At this time, you can see the lotus seeds in the middle. Just take out the peeled lotus seeds in the middle with both hands.

Techniques for peeling lotus seeds

In addition to the common wind, lotus seeds can also be soaked in clean water. After soaking for 3 to 5 hours, the shell of lotus seeds will swell and naturally separate from the lotus seeds inside. At this time, the skin of lotus seeds can be removed by gently peeling them with your hands. But at this time, there is still a thin layer of red on the outer layer of lotus seeds, and it must be removed completely to cook and eat it according to your own needs.
